Police in Quebec have called off a land search for three migrants thought to be missing in woods near the U.S. border southwest of Montreal after learning they may have actually been picked up by a vehicle.

Provincial police say they received the new information suggesting the woman and two young children are no longer in the search area near Godmanchester, Que., a small municipality that borders New York state.
